After the TT near misses, I suppose it was inevitable that something would change- but i for one will miss the stop box- one of the long term traditions that make the Manx and TT unique.

Not sure how the guys and Gals will be able to tell if they are going slow enough however, after having been travelling at some considerable speed a few secs before. I believe its against ACU regs to fit a speedo, (?)  and it's probably not a good idea for them to be looking at one rather than where they are going anyway.

In order to "police" it, will they now have transponder trigger points at the start and exit of pit lane?

More than likely and at some great exspence, a speed limiter device/button as used in F #1 Cars, will have to be fitted.
